Pretty sure people said that in the South about Civil Rights also.

People want a secure border. They don't want a police state with Puerto Ricans being arrested. They don't want raised food prices from immigrant labor disappearing. The Democrats have an obligation to CONNECT the bad results to the extreme deportations. Let's not forget it was independents who really turned the tide for Trump--and the economy is what they cared most about.

People in the South who said that about Civil Rights were wrong, because that was about the Constitutional rights of American citizens. There is no Constitutional right of immigration to the United States.

As an Independent I'm not sure I would blame the Independents. More, it was on those who did not vote at all.
